The Small Fortunes

The Small Fortunes are a rising rock band from Warrington. Founding members Louis Menguy and Louis James began writing together during the pandemic, later recording their debut EP with producer David Radahd-Jones at Red City Studios in Manchester. The full lineup came together in 2024 with the arrival of bassist Liam Clarke and drummer Adam Christopher, followed by Paul Glover on keys in early 2025. Renowned for their high-energy live shows, the band quickly built momentum, selling out headline gigs in both London and Manchester. Rooted in a shared love of the blues, The Small Fortunes draw inspiration from legends like Muddy Waters and John Lee Hooker, while channeling the raw energy of modern garage rock acts such as BRMC, The White Stripes & The Black Keys Following the release of their second EP, Down To The Wire, the band sold out every date of their debut UK tour in December 2025. They carried that momentum into 2026, selling out their entire March UK tour, culminating in their biggest headline show to date at Manchester’s Academy 2. Fresh off their rise, The Small Fortunes are heading to London and Glasgow for headline shows, alongside an electrifying run of festival appearances this summer—with a brand new single ‘Peace Of Mind’ out now!
